lyrics

Bright lights and sounds
Face smiles so wide
Let’s see whose frown
Is not in sight

I will bet you
It was made by
John Smith, white man
To his mom’s tears

“You know, Pete’s black,
Clare’s good old man.
When in my house
You should show love.”

On the big screen
John casts “Big Tom,”
So strong but dim
Staunch to a fault

In such a role
Left for the low
They may now choose
To live or grow

Sad, I must say
It can not be
That most can feel
Truth’s what they play

Life in this box
Shines more than real
I now just wish
It weren’t a steal

In such a way
Real glyphs do not
Show up with ease,
Flow with the breeze

This can be
Left for none
If we can
Throw out “fun”
